Simmer down tonight with me
There’s little talk between me and my friends
The trick of light, the trick of me
The trick of silence bleeds my brothers red
Little towns where eyes are sheathed
People drown in time inside their head
Little diamond - You, I mean
Holding on to all those words unsaid

You’re still holding on, holding on just like me
You’re holding on, holding on just like me

Now who will hold the bar?
And who can hold it the longest?
Even if it tears us apart
At least we can call it ours
Would you have the strength to fall?
Would you have the strength to fall?

Simmer down and come undone
Let’s dig around in what’s left of the dust
Little town, your mind was young
Look around to see what you’ll become
Boys are cold, that’s what they teach
Boys are numb and that’s just how they’ll be
And pass that down the family tree
You’d grabbed the bar before you could even speak

You’re still holding on, holding on just like me

Now who will hold the bar?
And who can hold it the longest?
Even if it tears us apart
At least we can call it ours
Would you have the strength to fall?
Would you have the strength to fall?
So break the chains of our shackled youth
Where we learned that we’re covered by the colour of blue
And that we need to find a lover who’s a mother to you
The men who smother the truth, maybe a brother to you
Maybe another recluse
Just may discover a new strength to fall so

Now who will hold the bar?
And who can hold it the longest?
Even if it tears us apart
At least we can call it ours
Would you have the strength to fall?
Would you have the strength to fall?

Now who will hold the bar?
And who can hold it the longest?
Even if it tears us apart
At least we can call it ours
Would you have the strength to fall?
Would you have the strength to fall?
